“Thank you.”
Although this situation could have been resolved without Lu Yinan exposing her, she still appreciated his goodwill.
Lu Yinan looked sincerely at her. “I should be the one to apologize. It’s because of me that Siyu was able to steal the questions, which resulted in you being criticized for so long. I’m sorry.
Also, I apologize for questioning you and demanding an apology without understanding the truth when I first met you.
Today, I’m not doing this to seek your forgiveness. Neither I nor the Lu family have the right to do so.
I just want to let you know that, regardless of what our parents do, I am on your side.”
After saying that, he bowed deeply to Lu Miao with a profound sense of apology. It seemed like he was afraid to see her reaction, fearing that she might say something unaccepting. Once he finished, he turned around and quickly walked away.
Lu Miao didn’t expect that Lu Yinan would be able to stand out among the filthy mud of the Lu family.
She had always been someone who would return the favor when others showed her respect.
She could feel Lu Yinan’s sincere kindness toward her.
Looking at his lonely back, she said,” Wait a minute.”
Lu Yinan’s body froze on the spot. He turned around and asked carefully,” Is there anything else?”
He was also a god who shone brightly in the esports field and was far beyond the reach of many fans.
This was the first time in his life that he had been so humble.
“I’ll add you on WeChat so we can play games together sometime, ” Lu Miao casually said.
Lu Yinan’s eyes instantly lit up. Did this mean that Miao Miao had forgiven him?
“Sure.”
He quickly took out his phone and opened the WeChat QR code, holding it up in front of Lu Miao.
His eyes stared intently at the phone screen as he watched Lu Miao scan the code and send a friend request. Without hesitation, he immediately clicked “Accept” when he saw the friend request in his contacts.
He feared that if he waited even a second longer, Lu Miao would retract the request.
Excitedly, he said, “Where are you headed now? Let me give you a ride.”
“No need. You still have your show to finish, so go back and continue recording. We’ll get in touch later,” Lu Miao replied directly.
“Okay.”
Lu Yinan hesitated for a moment. “Can I come to the studio next time when you’re recording?”
Lu Miao responded decisively, “Of course.”
When she returned home, Lu Yinan immediately sent a game invitation that evening.
Lu Miao took a look and downloaded the game.
Once she entered the game, Lu Yinan messaged her privately, “Have you played this game before?”
“No,” Lu Miao replied truthfully.
“Remember to stay behind me later, don’t worry, with me around, no one can hurt you.”
Lu Yinan briefly explained the game rules and tactics to her.
Lu Miao observed and adapted within two minutes.
Just as Lu Yinan was excitedly planning to lead her to dominate the game, Lu Miao suddenly executed a combo, instantly eliminating three opponents who surrounded her.
Then, before the other two opponents could react, she swiftly killed them as well. In one move, they were gone.
Lu Yinan stared at the “Game Over” screen, almost thinking he was hallucinating.
Incredulously, he suggested another round, but this time Lu Miao was even faster. Before the opponents could react, she delivered a lethal blow! Lu Yinan was dumbfounded. Was this a newbie who had never played before?
This was too much of a blow!
After a pause, he said seriously,” Miao Miao, do you want to join my team and play in the professional league with me?”
“No, I still have to take the college entrance examination. I don’t have time.”Lu Miao refused decisively.
Her career had already spanned across the fields of metaphysics, medicine, and science and technology. There were still a few academicians waiting for her to enter the research lab. so she reallv didn’t have the time to compete.
The program team publicly revealed the issue with the semifinals on the official Weibo account and selected a new contestant from the previous foreign participants.
Lu Miao led the Chinese team to a 2-1 victory over the foreign team.
On the day of the finals, Gu Ziheng and Lu Miao went to the TV station together in the morning.
As soon as the two entered the studio, they happened to come across Lu Yinan walking from the other side.
Gu Ziheng immediately stepped forward, firmly positioning himself in front of Lu Miao.
“What do you want again, Mr. Lu?” he asked.
Lu Yinan gave him a disdainful glance. “I’m here to watch my sister’s match. What’s it to you?”
After spending the past couple of nights playing games together, their relationship had become closer.
“She’s not your sister anymore. Miao Miao has long cut ties with your Lu family,” Gu Ziheng retorted.
Lu Yinan didn’t back down. “That’s right, she has nothing to do with your family. I heard she moved out of your Gu family a long time ago.”
Seeing that the two were about to start a fight right at the entrance of the studio, Lu Miao’s lips twitched, and she walked directly between them.
In a cold and ruthless tone, she said, “If you keep arguing, both of you can go back to your own homes and not come in.”
The two who were just at each other’s throats instantly fell silent, giving each other disdainful looks, and then coolly followed Lu Miao into the studio, one on each side.
As a former top star and in his comeback performance, Gu Ziheng naturally had a huge fan base.
Upon entering, he immediately received cheers from his fans.
Gu Ziheng was reliable in front of outsiders. He smiled and greeted the fans elegantly with a raised hand, then slightly stepped aside, allowing Lu Miao to sit down.
Meanwhile, Lu Yinan, as the current number one esports player, had an even larger fan following.
Although there was no prior notice, the screams and cheers from the audience were still deafening.
With one hand in his pocket, he waved to the fans in the audience.
At this moment, the two of them unknowingly gave Lu Miao an overwhelming presence!
The audience was astonished to see both of them standing behind Lu Miao at the same time, as if she were their leader. They couldn’t help but be amazed.
Who exactly was Lu Miao? She managed to have two top male idols escorting her!
They wanted to be the center of such adoration too!
Even before the competition started, the atmosphere in the venue was already heated due to their arrival.
After the host took the stage, Gu Ziheng, as the guest performer, was the first to appear.
His voice had suffered for many years, and although his fans were eagerly anticipating his comeback, they couldn’t help but worry if his voice had fully recovered.
But as soon as Gu Ziheng spoke, his clear and low magnetic voice instantly captivated everyone in the audience.
It was even more perfect than when his voice was still intact several years ago.
They could already sense that Gu Ziheng was going to reach the top of the charts once again with this comeback.
Gu Ziheng smiled, his eyes slightly red as he looked at Lu Miao. He never thought he would be able to step back onto the stage in this lifetime.
“I want to thank someone, she is my redemption, and it is thanks to her that I can return to the stage! Lu Miao, no matter what happens in the future, I will always support you!”
In the finals, Lu Miao defeated everyone and won the title of Brain King, protecting the country’s dignity and honor!
After the match ended, the three of them managed to sneak out of the back door after avoiding the fans with great difficulty. At that moment, the phone in Lu Miao’s pocket rang..
